Omnissa

The company serves more than 26,000 customers worldwide, including a majority of the Fortune 500, with about $1.5 billion in annual recurring revenue and roughly 4,000 employees.

Founded in 2002 and led since 2016 by CEO Karen Gondoly, Leostream serves financial services, government and defense, media and entertainment, and oil and gas customers who need secure, single-pane management of hybrid work environments.
